Landhuis Bloemhof proudly presents its first group exhibition of 2024 by the Art Collective Piso SERØ.
Punda to Bloemhof, A Creative Odyssey features a vibrant tapestry of Curaçao’s artistic expressions by Alejandra Cijntje, Andrew Thodé, Christian Peralta, Kerr de Lanooi (Sè), Noni Madeleine, Pito Polo, Sandra Zegarra Patow and Tamira Koeiman.
The art collective, known for its radical approach to art and community engagement, invites visitors to step into an immersive world where the boundaries of creativity are as fluid as the Caribbean Sea that surrounds our island home.
Piso SERØ
In the heart of Punda, Piso SERØ stands as a dynamic multidisciplinary collective, a haven for a diverse group of individuals driven by a shared passion for creativity. Located on the ground floor of Casa Moderna on Madurostraat, this multifunctional space, divided into a gallery and atelier, serves as a vibrant hub for cultural events. Their mission is to defy the conventional and to blur the lines between the artist and the observer, empowering every individual to find their creative voice.
The works of art in Punda to Bloemhof, A Creative Odyssey not only showcase individual talents but a collective journey into the essence of Piso SERØ itself. “The Creative Odyssey is more than a journey; it’s a living, evolving entity that mirrors the diversity of the Curaçao community. As the lines between artists and the community dissolve, ordinary people become co-creators in a celebration of shared creativity, proving that in the world of Piso SERØ, creativity indeed knows no boundaries”, says Piso SERØ co-founder Christian Peralta.
Events
Complementing the visual arts, Piso SERØ and Landhuis Bloemhof have designed some inspiring conceptual events throughout the exhibition period. These events are set to offer interactive experiences that challenge the traditional roles of the artist and the audience, ensuring that every visitor leaves with not just memories, but a profound connection to art.
